It's one of those things where interactions with villagers are only be fruitful if you invest into them. That means chucking flowers (not George or Clint for they are grumpy men) and gems (certain other villagers have issues with them) and fruits over the course of the week and then they start opening up to you. Talking with them when you run across them really won't do much unfortunately.

I just wish their random day-to-day chatter had more variety (and nuance as you befriend them) outside of events. I expect there will, at some point, be a mod adding a ton of dialogue (or maybe CA will do it themself). I had the 2-heart event with Shane and was really touched at him opening up a fair bit then in the morning I saw him on his way to work and he was like "WHAT DO YOU WANT gently caress OFF LOSER" and it was really goofy.

Ideally each villager would have like 5-10 lines of dialogue that reflect their personality and habits, per heart level, with conditional extras. It's a lot of writing though! But like the next day if Shane were like "Hey sorry I cried on your shoulder last night. Won't happen again." it would make sense as he tries to put some of those barriers back up because he still doesn't know you super well, and while he's still at two hearts if he's just like "Can't talk, gotta get to work" or "Talk later work now" instead of really brusquely telling you to piss off.

shane is really funny in that he's a jackass for a while even if you're at like 3-4 hearts with him but then you'll get a letter saying HEY HOPE YOU'RE HAVING A GREAT TIME AND HERE'S A RECIPE I LEARNED THAT YOU SHOULD TOTALLY MAKE ONE DAY? HEHE, ANYWAYS, HAVE A NICE DAY.

Yeah he's really weird. I like him though, and his two-heart event was pretty touching.

The zoom is so good, oh my loving god. At 1920x1080 with full zoom, going outside my house shows me everything to the edge of the greenhouse down to the bottom of the small lake.

I walked into the bus area, and could instantly see whether Pam was there or not.

I was able to see Leah more then the complimentary once a week, because I can see huge chunks of the town now! When I hear the door opening noise, it's no longer leaving me curious as to whats going on, I can see the people moving about.

Yeah, I briefly played the patch and got a weird clacking noise whenever I pressed WASD on the keyboard. I quit and restarted to see if that would make it go away and the patch was removed just then.

Gems are great for gifting, and the two choices at level 10 are pretty decent compared to miner's choices.

For $15 dollars I think a generap consensus is that not owning this is bad and wrong and Steam should autoban anyone who refuses to buy it.

Okay, maybe not that extreme, but it's reeeaallll drat good.

Rabbits feet are the only thing I have left to finish the community center (well, and 3 apples that I have to wait until fall for). Rabbits feet will eventually just fall of my rabits somehow right?

The fence thing is in reference to the low durability of plain wooden fences, and mine is in reference to being able to take food out of the garbage can and get affection points with someone over giving them a trashcan burger.

So do eels or catfish actually exist? I just fished up over 300 fish in spring and never once saw one of those fuckers. Got to fishing level 7 from 0 and none of the fish I wanted :argh:

In my experience Eels are incredibly common if you fish off the pier on the second(eastern) beach at night.

Check the traveling merchant near the forest pond every Friday and Sunday. I was eventually able to buy both the rabbit's foot and duck feather from her.

Nah, for some reason the forage seed crops just don't have as many visual stages as other crops. They'll sprout soon enough.

Do fruit trees continue to grow through winter (say I plant a spring tree in Autumn) or does its growth "freeze" during winter and resume when spring hits?

Fruit trees will grow in winter. Normal oak/maple/pine trees will not.

With sincerity, XML Notepad 2007, or your choice of XML editor. You'd just have to find out what the green bean's information is and insert it in.
